Living in NYC, kids are so exposed to culture, and I’ve been accused of harming my children by not teaching them Spanish. Is not that I don’t want to. It’s just very hard.

But lately the guilt is getting to me and I’ve been putting a bit more effort into trying to make them at least understand Spanish. I will take any help I can get, so I was excited when I was asked to review Canticos: Los Pollitos Book. This book is very special. It has the story in English but also has the translation in Spanish. There is also an app.

This is a board book, perfect for all little kids. I also liked that it was interactive. Grace loved opening the flaps to discover the rest of the story. It flips from one side in English to one side in Spanish. I read it to her in a singing voice.

This book is for sure a regular in our home now. It’s also one of those books that you want to hold on to forever. But for me the dual language is just what makes it great. It’s very hard to find bilingual books that are engaging. The book also works for any child who is trying to learn Spanish but also any child who is learning English. It’s just one more way to engage them in their culture. The app has an egg decorating game where they can practice shapes and color. What I like the most about the app is that it plays the chikies song in Spanish and my daughter absolutely loved it. She really liked the song and the best part is that we were reading the lyrics on the book at the same time.

Cantícos: Los Pollitos is just a MUST book for any parent raising bilingual children. If you want to buy the book, is available on Amazon.
